Hello Dear friends,
Here I’m .. Your FIKA Man.. back again after a brief pause.
This is a super special episode. Why do I say it? It’s because this is the first time ever I interviewed a career Diplomat who’s into Diplomatic affairs, with a major focus on assisting Dutch companies doing business in emerging markets.
Introducing Ewout de Wit, who is the Consul-General of the Kingdom of the Netherlands for South India. He is a Dutch diplomat, with extensive experience in economic diplomacy, development cooperation and peace and security issues.
In our conversation, his excellency talks about his stints in various countries in Africa, NATO and why he is loving his current stint in Bangalore. He talks about the positive energy & vibe he gets in interacting with people out here and embracing cultural differences to foster collaboration. Of course, Coffee certainly helped :-)
Don’t miss his nuggets of wisdom on the Dutch Way of Working & their Direct Communication Style.
Tune in and listen to this on Apple, Spotify, or any podcast player of your choice.
To my Dutch friends if you had your Gezellig moment listening to this episode & for everyone else if enjoyed tuning in, do spread the joy by liking & sharing it with your friends and family. Please do take a moment to subscribe to this podcast.
Meet you soon. Ciao Ciao!
Why the Dutch are different?
